Beach Break - Dynamite recap for July 8, 2026

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kenny Omega (who has Michael Nakazawa next to him). Omega says that this is it and it is do or die, and his back is against the wall, yet that is always when he does his best work. He says that if this is truly it and he can never hold championship gold in AEW ever again, he would shake MJF's hand and congratulate him on a job well done. Omega then tells MJF that he will not make it easy, and asks MJF if he is willing to stomp out his last dream of headlining All In. He says that he is ready this time and that this will not like their match in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Tommaso Ciampa beats Chris Jericho after throwing sand into Jericho's eyes after referee Aubrey Edwards keeps Ciampa from using a sand bucket to get out of the Walls of Jericho. After the match, Ciampa hits Jericho in the head with a metal folding chair, then pulls out a bag full of tools and dumps out of some of the contents, which includes an electric power drill that Ciampa decides to use before security shows up. Ciampa then puts the drill in an inflatable inner tube and uses the drill to spin the inner tube around on his way out.

We see footage of The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor) beating some men up.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Will Ospreay. Ospreay says that he is pulling for Kenny Omega, but one cannot look past MJF. He hopes that by the end of tonight, Omega will get past MJF's antics and face him at All In. MJF shows up and tells Ospreay that he should be thanking him instead of judging him, as he has put AEW in a golden era, and says that he was "the feeling" all along while Ospreay and Omega are just "good little wrestlers." MJF then tells Ospreay that after tonight, Omega will never challenge for his championship ever again, and he will then take great pleasure in breaking Ospreay's neck at All In. Ospreay says that MJF is nowhere near the best and begs for people to tell him how good he is and that until MJF can do it on his own, he will not be part of the conversation and never will be. MJF spits in Ospreay's face, and security has to break up the brawl that follows.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher beats "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita to become the AEW International Champion with a brainbuster into the top turnbuckle. After the match, Fletcher celebrates with The Don Callis Family while Mistico, Orange Cassidy and Kyle O'Reilly check on Takeshita along with the medical team.

Mick Foley makes his way to the ring, where The Don Callis Family is still celebrating. Mick Foley congratulates "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher on becoming AEW International Champion. Fletcher says that "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita was never his friend and was always riding his coattails, and that he has brought the International title back to the family. Don Callis says that this is about his family, not Mick Foley stealing the spotlight from the real talent here. Foley then tells Callis about credibility before mentioning his custom-made shoes with his late dog Randall and his current dog Wooffall. He then tells Callis that if he interrupts him again, Wooffall will get acquainted with the inner confines of Callis' ass. Callis brags about how the family has three titles before introducing "The Jet" Kevin Knight to the ring. Knight congratulates Fletcher for bringing the International Championship back, saying it took him long enough, then says that he is still owed a World title shot. He says that whether the winner is Kenny Omega or MJF, he will watch closely, as "Jet Two Belts" is on the way. Suddenly, Andrade el Idolo shows up and says he was the best of The Don Callis Family and that Callis promised him the AEW World Championship, but now, he promises to take one title from him. Callis tells Andrade that if he wants a belt, then he can get into the meat grinder and challenge Mark Davis for the AEW National Championship if he can beat Jake Doyle. Andrade el Idolo answers by daring the entire family to attack him, and Mark Davis, "The Machine" Brian Jake Doyle and Kevin Knight chase him to the back, where they are attacked by Darby Allin. Darby is soon overpowered and outnumbered, but when Brian Cage grabs Darby's skateboard, pyrotechnics fly out of the skateboard, thanks to Andrade, who is holding the switch in his hands.

Will Ospreay and Jon Moxley beat The Workhorsemen (JD Drake and Anthony Henry).

We hear from Hikaru Shida, who says that she told everyone what was coming and nobody listened, and now, she is TBS Champion and "the ace of TBS." She says that for as long as she is champion, TBS stards for "The Best is Shida."

"The Toxic Spider" Thekla guests on commentary for the next match, while Mercedes Moné watches from the lifeguard's chair on the stage.

In a surprise return, Willow Nightingale beats Julia Hart, Athena, Maya World, Skye Blue, Mina Shirakawa, "The Pink Devil" Rina and Thunder Rosa in a Casino Gauntlet Match to decide a #1 contender for the AEW Women's World Championship. After the match, Willow is attacked from behind by "The Toxic Spider" Thekla. Meanwhile, The Divine Dominion (Megan Bayne and Lena Kross) beat up Julia Hart and Skye Blue on the ramp. As Thekla is about to hit Willow with the AEW Women's World Championship, she is attacked from behind by Mercedes Moné, who then strikes Willow with the Women's Owen Hart Championship.

We hear from "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry, who looks back on his AEW career and has the fear that he will not live up to expectations. Jack Perry says that he wants to be the best and that he it is where he wants to be champion, which is why he has re-signed with AEW.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews "Speedball" Mike Bailey, who says that Don Callis has taken so much from him that he must take from him. Speedball then announces that he is coming for Mark Davis and the AEW National Championship.

Kenny Omega beats MJF to win the AEW World Championship for a second time! During the match, MJF pulls out the Dynamite Diamond Ring, but Will Ospreay shows up and takes it away from him. Omega tries to hit MJF with the AEW World Championship, but cannot do it, and MJF hits Omega with a low blow and blasts him with the AEW World Championship only for Omega to kick out at one. Omega soon hits three V-Triggers followed by the One Winged Angel to win the match and the title. (Had Omega lost, he would have never been able to challenge for the AEW World Championship ever again.)

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 1, 2026

In backstage footage from Forbidden Door, Renee Paquette interviews Will Ospreay and Alex Windsor. Ospreay talks about how he is excited to be at All In when Jon Moxley shows up. Moxley meets with Ospreay after Renee and Windsor leave, and Moxley tells Ospreay that if he wants to be "the real thing," he must live it. He says that AEW can be something great in the greatest sport in the world, and while the business is full of unsavory people, it is up to them to protect AEW and preserve the craft. He then gives Ospreay a Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marin Shafir) patch, saying that he has earned the right to ride with The Death Riders and that he is proud of him. Moxley leaves, then Kenny Omega shows up and says he is proud of Ospreay. Ospreay says that he knows that Omega is concerned about him, then tells Omega that he is not his father. MJF shows up, and Omega reminds MJF that he has him to deal with after Mark Briscoe if he survives. MJF tells Ospreay he will see him at Wembley Stadium, then leaves. Omega tells Ospreay they will always be friends and that what Ospreay has going on with The Death Riders does not affect their friendship, then tells Ospreay to take care of himself.

MJF retains the AEW World Championship against Mark Briscoe after countering a Jay Driller with a waterwheel slam followed by the Heatseeker. After the match, MJF hits Briscoe with the Dynamite Diamond Ring. MJF then forces medical staff out of the ring, but before Briscoe can get up so that MJF can hit him again, Kenny Omega shows up. MJF retreats. Omega reiterates to MJF that he will be knocking down his door and proposes that MJF has the energy to face him tonight. MJF says it is bad enough he had to come to California and wrestle Briscoe, and refuses to wrestle Omega again. He says that it is laughable that Omega wants another shot at his title after losing to him twice and having kicked out of the One Winged Angel, and says he will not face him at first before suddenly having a big idea. MJF says he will wrestle Omega for the title next week on one condition, and if he does not get an answer by next week, he will not get his shot. If MJF retains, Omega will never be able to become AEW World Championship ever again.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews MJF. MJF addresses Andrade el Idolo for putting his hands on him and says that payback is coming and it will hit like a ton of bricks, then lists off who he has beaten in AEW and says that Kenny Omega is 0-2 against him before proclaiming that he is the best in the world. He then says that Omega will not agree to his terms because he is "literally gutless." Will Ospreay shows up and tells MJF not to hurt himself "sucking [himself] off like that" before asking why MJF put up a stipulation. MJF says he is the champ and Ospreay is not, then tells Ospreay he will see him in Wembley Stadium.

Tony Schiavone interviews Andrade el Idolo on the stage. Andrade declares that he is done with The Don Callis Family and MJF and that he will become the AEW World Champion. He then asks "How you know?" before he is attacked from behind by Jake Doyle, Lance Archer and "The Machine" Brian Cage. Don Callis leads the charge as Kevin Knight also shows up, and Brian Cage hits Andrade with the Drill Claw. Callis then commands Andrade to be thrown out of the ring, as Knight has a match to win. Andrade is tossed out of the ring by Brian Cage.

We hear from Mercedes Moné, who boasts about becoming the first-ever two-time Women's Owen Hart winner and how she dominates everywhere she goes and proves that she, not dreams, wins championships. She then says that the AEW Women's World Championship is the last piece to what is already hers.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Jet" Kevin Knight retains the TNT Championship against Lio Rush. At the beginning of the match, Lio Rush shows up with a backpack containing a completely blackened Ring of Honor World Television Championship. It is announced that Collision will air tomorrow night at 8 PM Eastern/7 PM Central. After the match, Darby Allin shows up and wants a TNT Championship Match, and says that if Knight says no, what happened at Forbidden Door will keep happening. Callis takes the microphone from Knight and says Darby has been a great wrestler and champion, but he crossed the line from wrestler to criminal at Forbidden Door, and his family does not reward criminal behavior and that Darby will not get a match as long as he has something to say about it. Darby says that Knight has dug his grave as Callis says that Darby will not get a match and that Darby should be in a cell.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Tommaso Ciampa, who demands that Renee declare that he is better than Jericho. All of a sudden, Ciampa is whacked in the head with a garbage can by Jericho, who then tosses Ciampa into some chairs. When security gets involved out side of the arena in the loading bay, Ciampa jumps them and throws more things at Jericho while attacking security. He then tries to attack Jericho with a power drill before Jericho fights back. Security gets their hands on Ciampa, but Jericho dives on all of them from the back of a truck before even more security shows up and separates them.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kenny Omega, who is conversing with The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson). Matt has faith in Omega to beat MJF, but Nick is a little apprehensive. Omega says he has not made a decision yet and that this decision is important, and asks what is left for him if he cannot challenge for the AEW World Championship and what is in it for MJF.

Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay beat The Lethal Twist ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson).

In backstage footage from after Forbidden Door, Lexy Nair interviews Adam Copeland and Christian Cage. Christian wants to know why "Switchblade" Jay White, and Copeland says that Jay White owed him a favor and that they are even. Christian mentions that he had and still has a problem with Jay White before Jay White's injury.

The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) heads to the ring. Jay White says he was out of action for 459 days and that things have changed since then, then says that The Bang Bang Gang are back together again and wants to know "who let The Dogs (Clark Connors, Gabe Kidd, David Finlay) out." Jay White mentions his history with David Finlay, then says that nothing changes the fact that Finlay is "a nepo baby bitch boy." He says that the stench of Finlay's arrogance has lingered for far too long and that he is here to clear the air, then says Sunday was just the beginning.

We hear from Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo, "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty) backstage. Shane Taylor says that they run Collision, and Carlie Bravo challenges The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) to a eight-man tag match at Collision.

Hikaru Shida beats Harley Cameron, Maika, Queen Aminata, Persephone and Kris Statlander in a Survival of the Fittest Match to win the vacant TBS Championship! Harley Cameron is eliminated by Persephone when Persephone takes advantage of Harley's showboating. Maika is eliminated by Hikaru Shida with a schoolkid pin after Shida uses referee Aubrey Edwards as a human shield. Statlander eliminates Persephone after Persephone counters Staturday Night Special with a roll-up only for Statlander to counter with a roll-up of her own. Statlander is eliminated by Shida by submission after Statlander gets to the ropes to escape an ankle lock only to be blasted in the face with the TBS Championship by an already-eliminated Persephone, which knocks Statlander out and allows Shida to win the match and become champion.

Kenny Omega heads to the ring when Will Ospreay stops him and asks Omega if he thinks this is a good idea, saying that he believes in Omega before asking Omega if he believes in himself. Omega says this is his Death Ground, and if he goes out, he goes out guns blazing. Omega then heads to the ring and talks about how he has been part of professional wrestling for more than half his life and giving the people everything that he has in the ring. He says he has won titles and set records that could never be broken again and has had a career that can be looked upon fondly, but there is a selfish part of him that knows that it is not enough and that there is a little bit more in the tank. Omega says that if everyone else can believe just one more time, then he knows he can be a champion everyone can be part of and stand on the greatest stage in Wembley Stadium and represent All Elite Wrestling against Will Ospreay. He says that the cost that MJF wants him to make is not too high, and mentions that MJF has anticipated the possibility that he is "the god of professional wrestling" that he has been known to be. Omega says that having one more chance to beat the brakes off MJF while he is still healthy puts a fire in him, and that he not only accepts MJF's challenge, he demands that MJF brings what is his. All of a sudden, Omega is attacked from behind by MJF, and Omega fights back until officials and security rush in to separate both men. MJF manages to get out of the ring as the show ends. (Some of the security guards are played by Dom Kubrick, Slade and McCallion of Delirium (both unmasked), and current United Wrestling Network World Champion Jordan Cruz.)

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for June 17, 2026

Lexy Nair interviews MJF and The Don Callis Family. MJF says that the AEW World Championship is the only world title that matters and that he is the best in the world, then mentions everyone he is teaming with - "The Jet" Kevin Knight, Andrade el Idolo, Jake Doyle, Kazuchika Okada, and "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher - and says he is better than all of them. He then says that while everyone else he has mentioned is a star, Mark Briscoe is not, and that he hates Mark because the fans only like him because his brother died and because he is delusional enough to think he can take his title. Don Callis says that his family will be bringing the power tonight, and as he lists who will be in the ring tonight, Andrade wants nothing of a partnership with MJF. Don Callis tells Andrade that he will be a great world champion, "but for now, do the match."

Kenny Omega beats Tony Nese. After the match, Kenny Omega takes the microphone, but he is interrupted by Zack Sabre Jr., Mikey Nicholls and Bad Dude Tito before he can even speak. Omega gets out of the ring and slides the microphone over to the threesome and he walks to the ramp and is soon joined by Jack Perry and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson). Sabre then kicks the microphone back to Omega. Omega addresses Sabre, noting that he has gotten his message loud and clear and that both men have something the other want. He knows Sabre wants to beat him, but he wants to beat Sabre.

Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) beats The Death Riders (Jon Moxley and Daniel Garcia).

Backstage, we hear from "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Fletcher says they will be in tonight's main event and Forbidden Door's steel cage match, but they will still be bringing the International Championship back to The Don Callis Family. Okada agrees, As they wonder who will stand across the ring from them, they soon reveal who will not be: Tomohiro Ishii, who the two of them have laid out.

Backstage, we hear from Tommaso Ciampa. Ciampa says he has just one reason to hate Chris Jericho, yet he did not always hate him; he used to respect him. He admits he hates what Jericho is now, and wants this Jericho out of his world. He then says that if Jericho still has it in him and considers him worthy, then they can dance. He says the ball is in Jericho's court, and that he should not drop it.

The Dogs (Clark Connors and David Finlay) are met by Adam Copeland and Christian Cage before they can head to the ring, and this leads to a brawl between the two teams that makes its way to the ring. Finlay saves Connors before Copeland and Christian can both rush at him, then Christian says that after what happened a couple of weeks ago, most people are expecting him to say something unsavory about a family member. He then says that even he has standards, and by that, he has never come cross another tag team who are named after their mothers. He also says that if Finlay thinks he is a gift to wrestling, then his father should have let him run down the inside of his leg. Copeland says The Dogs have been on a winning streak lately and why he is jumping and mocking them in order to make a name off of their backs, then says that he and Christian are The Dogs' learning curve. Copeland lists the tag teams they learned and picked intangibles from, then says that at Forbidden Door, he and Christian will use their old man strength, knowledge and grumpiness to make sure they walk out of their house as "housebroken little pups."

Backstage, we hear from Thekla. She says that she did everything Starlight Kid did in Japan, and while Starlight Kid became a hero, she was kicked out and had to go it on her own. Thekla says she does not have to worry about being anybody's favorite wrestler like Starlight Kid does, and tells Starlight Kid to stay in Japan, because she runs AEW on the other side of the forbidden door.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Brodido (Brody King and Bandido).

Tony Schiavone introduces Will Ospreay followed by Swerve Strickland for a face-to-face meeting. Before introducing Swerve, Schiavone mentions that Ospreay has recently tied the knot with Alex Windsor, who has agreed to postpone the honeymoon so that Ospreay can chase the AEW World Championship. Swerve then shows up with Prince Nana, who makes fun of Schiavone's suit before telling him to get out of the ring and handing the microphone to Swerve. Swerve says it has been a year and that he has been keeping an eye on him, then says Swerve has changed and that he does not like it. Ospreay asks if they have a problem, to which Swerve says yes, as he finds it weird that Ospreay is hanging around Jon Moxley. Ospreay says he has not forgiven or forgotten what Moxley did to him, and that he had to let it go. He says that he and Moxley are training partners, and his neck feel great and his ground game is better. Ospreay mentions everything that happened at All In Texas last year and how Swerve did not help out with taking the AEW World Championship off of Jon Moxley. He asks why Swerve did not help, then smacks the microphone before stating Forbidden Door is bigger than an explanation. He says that Forbidden Door is Swerve's redemption, but it is his destiny. He says that this is the semi-finals for his World Cup and he wants to kick the winning goal at Wembley Stadium, and that Swerve is standing in the way of his dream and will not hesitate to end it. Ospreay says he will end Swerve if he has to, but Swerve says "Not if I do it first." Swerve mentions Ospreay saying that last year was "Hangman" Adam Page's time and how he agreed with him and fought alongside him, then asks where Hangman is now. He says that everything they did off Ospreay's word was for nothing, and that he will not just step aside for him. Swerve says he is done stepping aside to let people take opportunities he deserve and letting veterans step on his time. Swerve says he has made a career out of throwing Molotov cocktails at the system, as has Ospreay, and that the two of them have changed the conversation on what pro wrestling before and they will do it again at Forbidden Door. Swerve then says his victory is certain, as Ospreay has not beaten him in ten years, and when he goes over him to Wembley and wins the AEW World Championship again, Ospreay can challenge him again and get beaten again. He says that Ospreay is not better than him on his worst day with a fragile neck, and Ospreay punches Swerve. Prince Nana hands Swerve a chain, and The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Daniel Garcia, PAC, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) show up.

Kyle O'Reilly mentions that if anyone gets disqualified, they are out of Forbidden Door. Briscoe says that they will have to do things by the book, then introduces someone who wants to get their hands on "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher: "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita. Takeshita says he hates both Fletcher and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, then Briscoe introduces someone who is not fond of MJF or Kevin Knight: Darby Allin, who says that they will win tonight before Mark Briscoe takes the AEW World Championship.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for June 3, 2026

In backstage footage from earlier today, Renee Paquette interviews Rush, who says that he has his shot at the World title after three years and that he will die in the ring if that is what it takes to win it.

Mark Briscoe beats Lio Rush. After the match, Mark Briscoe calls out MJF. He mentions the period after his brother Jay Briscoe's death and how he debuted alone at that time, and says that AEW saved his life and helped him get his anger out, yet he could still not find joy. He talks about how that joy was regained with the formation of The Conglomeration, then addresses how he and MJF crossed paths and how MJF made that anger bubble back up from sheer hatred. Briscoe says he pinned MJF in the center of the ring and caused him and the anger to go away for a while, but MJF came back, and so did the anger, and this time, MJF has something he wants: the AEW World Championship. Briscoe says that MJF whines and moans and complains until he gets his way, then says that he is a grinder who does his work and never complains before calling out both MJF and his manhood. He tells MJF to prove he is the best, and says that MJF is The Devil, then he is a child of God, and that MJF will lose. Briscoe then calls MJF "a moist-ass bitch" and demands he give him a title shot.

As for herself, Thekla has her eyes set on Forbidden Door, and Julia Hart and Skye Blue bring out a ladder as Thekla says she will close that door as she declares death to, not war on, Stardom. Thekla then climbs the ladder and spits on the Stardom logo on the LED board before flipping everyone off.

Backstage, we hear from The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, PAC, "The Problem" Marina Shafir). Jon Moxley tells Will Ospreay that it is time to cast out his thoughts regarding Mark Davis forever, as they are both different men and Ospreay is becoming indestructible in mind and spirit to the point that Don Callis will have to hire an eighteen-wheeler to run him over.

Spring Break Thru - Dynamite recap for April 15, 2026

Backstage, Renee Paquette manages to get an interview with MJF. MJF puts himself on a pedestal regarding his recent title defenses, including against Kenny Omega, then speaks with Don Callis, who apologizes about "the Andrade thing." He finds out from Callis that Darby Allin beat Andrade el Idolo and got a world title shot, then tells Callis that he owes him one. Renee has to interrupt, telling MJF that the world title match with Darby is not just tonight, but right now. MJF shows up angrily to the match, saying he is not taking part in an impromptu match that he found out about three seconds ago. He says that he has a lot of money and says that if something will not happen, it will not happen. MJF threatens to sue numerous people, including the fans, referee Aubrey Edwards, ring announcer Justin Roberts and even Warner Bros. Discovery, but that leads to a "Ring the bell!" chant that just angers MJF further. He says that his back hurts from wrestling for almost an hour against Kenny Omega three days ago, and says it would be a bad look if he wrestled with a back injury. He says he is doing Darby a favor, saying he is talented, but that fans like him because he is "like them." He says he is doing Darby a favor, saying he is talented, but that fans like him because he is "like them." MJF tells Darby that he is good, but not great, and is not championship material and not ready to be the AEW World Champion. Darby snatches the microphone from MJF and says it takes one night to turn the wrestling world on its head, and if he is not ready now, he will never be ready. He says he has done so much to represent the company, and talks about how he started his career ten miles from tonight's arena. As Darby demands the bell be rung, MJF begs Darby off. Bryan Danielson then relays a message from founder Tony Khan, saying that while he agrees with MJF, this match will be the main event. Also, if MJF refuses, he will be stripped of the AEW World Championship. Darby then tells MJF that tonight, he will beat his ass with a headlock takeover.

In backstage footage from after Dynasty, Tony Schiavone interviews Kenny Omega, who has nothing to say after his loss to MJF before heading into the trainer's room. He is met by Will Ospreay, and Omega says that the night did not go their way. Omega says he feels like he let everybody down, and while Ospreay tells Omega not to doubt himself, Omega admits he does not have much time in his career left before telling Ospreay that he has plenty of time and that it is all up to him now. Ospreay says he has been sad, dejected and crying for the last 40 minutes, but he still aims to be AEW World Champion, and he is not giving up on that dream. He tells Omega that he can still do it before telling him he has his back and leaving the room, saying that Omega is his hero. Omega then says that maybe he cannot give up and that maybe there is still a chance.

Tommaso Ciampa beats Dezmond Xavier. After the match, Ciampa calls Dezmond "the example," stating that he is sick of waiting and that he wants all of the gold, and if he hasn't made himself clear, he will come after who wins the AEW World Championship tonight. Ciampa then knocks Dezmond out of the ring with another knee and tears up a fan's sign on the way to the back.

FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Stokely Hathaway head to the ring. Harwood says he has read all of the talk online and says that the fact that FTR has won again has made everyone angry. He understands that the fans are angry because they love an underdog story because they think they can relate to it when they are just losers. He calls the fans "fat losers" and that FTR gave Adam Copeland and Christian Cage, yet they could not get the job done. He declares that while FTR are tag team champions, Copeland and Christian will never get another shot at their titles again. Stokely says that he does not need hoes because he has the AEW World Tag Team Champions as he addresses the fans who seemingly know everything, and compares FTR to Goliath while stating the locker room is full of "wanna-be Davids." Stokely says that every time David steps up to the lion, they get put down, and states that while Tony Khan will throw teams from CMLL and New Japan Pro Wrestling at them, they will all fall to the Goliath in FTR. Wheeler pays homage to Copeland and Christian's careers now that they have gotten rid of them, and asks that the fans join them in a moment of silence only to get booed. After a fraction of a second of silence, the fans get a ten-second pose. Wheeler thanks the fans and wishes them a great night.

"The Jet" Kevin Knight retains the TNT Championship against Claudio Castagnoli. After the match, Knight gives Claudio credit for being one of the hardest-hitting wrestlers in AEW, then says that will not stop him as he is the new TNT Champion. He addresses losing the Trios titles the night before he became TNT Champion, then says that one door closes and one door opens and that one must slow down to speed back up before proclaiming that he is riding high. Knight then says that he will be keeping an eye on Darby Allin vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship as "Jet 2 Belts" sounds "too fly."

Renee Young interviews Chris Jericho in the ring. Jericho says he feels so happy to be back in AEW and to be back in the ring at Dynasty, saying it was one of his best matches in a long time, even though he lost because he was outnumbered three-to-one. All of a sudden, The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) shows up, and Ricochet says he meant it when he respected him and that Jericho got himself hurt like he said he would, and that he took him out with the Lionsault, which he calls "the Rico-sault." Ricochet says that while Jericho did not embarrass himself, he did not overcome "the rise of Ricochet," and tells Jericho to quit while he is ahead unless he wants to re-invent himself as "the guy who gets his ass beat by Ricochet every time he shows up." Jericho thanks Ricochet for his insight while making fun of Ricochet for his baldness and calling Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona "dumb and ugly," then dares Ricochet to get in the ring with him one-on-one. Ricochet tells Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona to let him handle this one alone before heading to the ring, but it is not long before Kaun and Toa Liona get in the ring when Jericho gets the upper hand. Jericho tries to fight back, but he is still overpowered and eventually laid out, and Ricochet gets the last word with "the Rico-sault."

In backstage footage from after Dynasty, Renee Paquette interviews Don Callis and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada.

Renee Paquette is interrupted by "The Toxic Spider" Thekla from out of the crowd. Thekla brags about how she beat Jamie Hayter at Dynasty, then tells the fans to get used to her winning as the industry is full of nothing but "dumb bitches." Alex Windsor shows up and calls Thekla out for how she beat Hayter and says she should be the one to beat the piss out of her right now. Thekla tells Windsor not to get angry because she and Will Ospreay lost at Dynasty. Ospreay says she is the New Japan Pro Wrestling Strong Women's Champion and that Thekla is famous in Japan for getting herself fired. Thekla says Japan could not handle her just like how nobody here can handle her. Windsor says she can handle Thekla right now, but Thekla says no. Windsor then tells Thekla to put her title on the line so that she can face her on Collision, and Thekla accepts before Julia Hart and Skye Blue try and fail to ambush Windsor.

We hear from The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia). Jon Moxley says he likes to be surprised and that Will Ospreay never surprises him. "The Problem" Marina Shafir shows up, and Moxley notes from her that Ospreay is not looking good. Moxley says Ospreay showed him his cards, and contrary to popular belief, he does not enjoy the suffering of others, even though he appreciates the beauty of it. Moxley also addresses "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne, saying he knows nothing about him at all and wants Nick Wayne to surprise him. He says that Continental Championship rules are "adult stuff" and tells Nick Wayne to leave his mother in the back.

Omega says that everyone is here to watch the best wrestle, not to see MJF, and that everyone stood behind him because they wanted to see something better than MJF. He also admits he may be the god of professional wrestler if he is the antithesis to MJF and that he will be the one to strike MJF and ensure he never becomes World Champion again. MJF says he could sit and talk about how Omega's bones are aging as fast as Canadian bagged milk or how Kota Ibushi is one strong gust away from retirement, but that would be too easy, and he wants to talk about what Omega doesn't: Omega's sudden want for the world title. MJF mentions that Omega's diverticulitis is to the point that Omega's organs can explode any time, any point, anywhere. He says that Omega's time is on a fast, winding clock to cement his legacy, and when he is done, his fans will be embarassed of him. MJF says that Omega's fans will realize that Omega is nothing more than a false idol who is better off dead. Omega topples the table, then "Speedball" Mike Bailey stops Omega and says MJF is trying to get Omega to strike him to get out of defending the AEW World Championship. He calls MJF a coward and says he should be thanking Omega, stating that with no Omega, there is no MJF. Speedball says that respect is earned and that Omega is a respectable living legend while MJF is only a living legend in his own mind, and that some of MJF's ego would be lessened if he kicked him in the head in the finest country of Earth. Omega says that while his organs are not what they used to be and while he is missing 24 inches of intestines, he would rather miss those than miss his balls. MJF accepts Speedball's challenge, but warns Speedball that he will make an example out of him before calling Canada a dump and proclaiming that the United States is all that matters.

Moxley asks Ospreay how he thought this would go, and asks if either he of Ospreay put Ospreay in this position before advising Ospreay to use his head next time or lose it permanently.

Darby calls out MJF, but gets The Don Callis Family, and Callis says MJF has paid his family a lot of money and has asked him to deliver a message.

He warns MJF that he will rip and tear him and that he will only let him lie when he is finished with him. He hopes that does not scare MJF as he is a world champion, and since MJF is willing to punch someone with the Dynamite Diamond Ring, he dares MJF to get in the ring and show what good it will do for him.As MJF tells Hangman not to make him whup his ass, too, "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher, Mark Davis and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada show up from out of nowhere and attack Hangman.
